We meet ds' teacher this Thursday! DS has the same teacher his good friend had last year, so I got some inside info on her (all good...yay). I just had a sinking feeling when the mom was telling us about how "ahead " this teacher's class was at the end of the year: sounding out words, counting by 5's, telling time. Ahead? Don't most K'rs have some grasp of this at the start?
I just have to concede that this is a how-to-do-school learning year for ds. Not that we won't supplement at home and ask for some challenge at school, but I'm feeling more and more that public school may not be the right fit (and I DO hope I'm wrong) .
There is no gifted anything until 4th grade - no exceptions.
